It would be hard to tell without a Hydrometer read on the first or second day but I’m guessing since these wines are usually 7-8%, by adding the juice and partial F pack you probably raised it 2 points to 10%. Just a guess. A rule of measure is 1 pound of sugar raises your gravity aroubd 1 point...

Yeah good decision, I’ve made a lot of the Orchard Breezin and Island Mist Kits, they’ve all tasted good to me. With those kits I add a 4 or 5 pound bag of sugar to some boiling water, dissolve it, let cool and add to primary fermentation. My wife likes the sweet wines so I don’t mess with the F...

I made the Gewurztraminer about 9 months ago. Great white wine. I love it. Probably one I will make again.

anybody have any suggestions on a great tasting wine trio kit. I see the RJS Premiere Trio with Cabernet, Syrah and Zin listed. Is that good? Seems to be my only choice??? Thank You for your help.

Just ordered my kit, $93 from Midwest. They offering 20% off one item and free shipping. Thanks for everybody’s input, I wasn’t going to order it at first but it sounds like a good kit from what I’ve read.

Costco or Sams $12.99 for 5 pounds. I’ll throw in I took 1st and 3rd at Ky State Fair with Costco honey for mead fruit category. I’ve looked for local honey but cheapest I can find is $12 a pound.

I just let mine clear naturally. It will probably clear out in 2-3 weeks.

I was wondering about this one. So your a thumbs up ? I read the description but I’m never too sure what all that means. ‍♂️

Northern Brewer has 20% off one item going on now with free shipping. $92 Total.

I’m bottling the Cru Creme Brûlée this Tuesday, did the Cru Black Forest dessert kit and it going on day 8 and still bubbling. Hoping these turn out good???

Walkers seems legit to me. The only negative comment I found online was that if you want to make a Red Wine that the “Hot Pressing” of the grapes they do gives a red wine less body and aroma. I think I’m going to try out their peach bucket and see how it goes.

I was in my wine supply store yesterday and this is the place the owner suggested to me, Walkers Juice. I was told it was 5 gallons of pure juice. The prices and shipping cost seemed reasonable online.

Yes, gravity is so high you need more time to let it ferment out.

Thats exactly how my peach Icewine is going. Bottling it this weekend.

Your welcome, it’s a nice tasting kit. I made a Island mist peach kit a few months ago and compared it to that and this peach Icewine is X2 more than the island mist.

Tasted mine yesterday, definitely has a strong, sweet peach taste. Not sure how aging will effect it though

It finishes extremely high. Mine was 1.060. I checked direction sheet to make sure and 1.060 is where it is suppose to finish. SG was 1.118. I just did a final transfer yesterday and tasted it. It definitely is Sweet and has a strong peach taste. I can only see myself drinking 1 glass at a...

Agree, Vintners Reserve kits are pretty good and around $80 a kit. They are pretty good at 3 months.

I made the Eclipse Cabernet, bought it from Label Peelers online, it was very tasty at 6 months and just keeps getting better.

. Thanks.
